1) Its and It's:
Its is indicating that "it has" and It's is showing possession
I feel that most people make this mistake because they don't know how to use it and maybe they just get too lazy to proof read
2) Lose and Loose:
Lose is the opposite of winning and Loose is not tight
Most people make this common mistake because they don't want to sound out the word and then they wind up putting the wrong word there or because the two words are so similar it's just a miss spelling
3) Your and You're:
Your is possessive and You're is a contraction of "you are"
People make this mistake often because it can get confusing when you are in the zone and can't really think about the miss spellings or proper way to say something
4) Literally:
means actually or without exaggeration
People now a days hear what other people are saying and just think that since they are using the word that way it must be right, but its not.
5) Definitely:
is not spelled with an A
When people try to spell this word they pronounce it in their head and then write or type what they hear themselves saying and its most of the time spelled with an A
